A while back I was given my grandmother NC's pearls. I was beside myself with joy and cherish them with all of my heart. Today Josh and I went to our friends wedding. The wedding was held at the same place Josh and I were married in 2003. It was very good to be there again and remember the day. The house is still as beautiful as ever and always holds a special place in my heart. I was very happy to have the chance to be there again and to wear the pearls again. It became a tradition in my family to share these pearls and each girl in the family was given the option to wear them at thier wedding. Beginning with Jennifer, then Lindsey, then Debbie, then me and then Tanya. All of us proud as ever to be part of our family and to wear this beautiful necklace. The story, letters and photos were put into a photo book by my Aunt D'ann and it really shows the love for them. As I now hold these pearls, I think of what it felt like to wear them on my wedding day. I can only say I felt like a light shined through me. A light that was shining through the pearls onto everyone that looked at me. When I put them on this morning I held them to my skin and felt radiant again. As to quote my grandfther's card that was with the pearls "The pearl darling, is supposed to be the symbol of beauty." I can't agree more.
